hercules & love affair "blue songs" (the much-maligned second album, delete a few tracks and it's a solid deep house album).
villalobos/loderbauer "Re: ECM" (cool background sounds, not dance music)
baobinga & co. "joint ventures" (i love that sound, nice to have everything compiled in one place)
cut hands "afro noise 1" (yeah, still)
chancha via circuito "rio arriba" (digital cumbia with enough traces of traditional style)
going back: amerie "touch" ("1 thing" and "talkin' about", so good)
going way back: "new breed presents sounds of the urban jungle" comp
